I was wondering if there's enough interest in The Otherside to sustain a thread?
I can't find a decent discussion on it anywhere on the internet and discord is really not my thing


But i have a ton of theories and even more questions

(my initial thoughts is that we will use resources that grow on lands to "create" the metaverse that will exist on the "otherside" or the next 100K lands)


In case someone is interested but doesn't know what it is:

The otherside is a play-to-earn blockchain game, where you hold deeds, or lands as nft's which have resources or artifacts on them
The goal is to build the BAYC metaverse along the ride
The total number of lands is 100,000 until now, out of which 45,000 were given away, and 55,000 sold out in half an hour for a total of more than 300 million usd

They have not explained anything yet about the game, not the rules nor the gameplay action nor anything ... its all about guessing for now.. but that guessing can have massive financial consequences

I think this is going to be the next big thing, and BAYC will end up as a bonafide blue chip company
Anyone else agrees? Would love to hear your theories about the game

Some of the questions I have


- What is Sediment tier? and how important is it?

- What is Environment tier?

- What is the invasive species the obelisk talks about? and what will it do?
- Why are we asked to "chose sides"? can you like be a thief and steal or a villain/bad guy?

- What will happen if ETH crashed? or the entire crypto thingie.. can this game be changed to be played in usd or will it fail as well?

- Are BAYC lands more valuable because of the arcade machine in the middle of the map? since the trip is shorter they might be able to have bonuses faster

- What is in the otherside? also resources lands? or is it buildable lands?

- How valuable are rare resources?

So many other questions.. really hope there are people into it as well

I read the entire website on otherside.xyz

I don't understand what I'm supposed to do

Thats precisely why I wanted start this thread

No one understands much yet... they're doing it on purpose to build it up, but I'm sure whoever guesses right will be handsomely rewarded

I don't get it either. The only thing that jumps out at me is a big call to action to connect a wallet. I wouldn't mind knowing what's in it for me before doing that.

For now, just connecting your wallet won't do much.. maybe just show you your land on the overall map


But this will prolly change when the game kicks off
I except a lot of the in game action will be web based


The thing is, they're doing it on purpose to build up interest and to allow for more land transfers

How i'd love to solve those mysteries before anyone else

Merge with nft thread

Why? No reason to do that just yet.. It's a huge topic, it will get lost in nft..

The topic started there and there was little to no interest so making a new thread hardly seems like the solution

do as you please mate.. if its bothering you so much go ahead and close it, that's the spirit

this is why this forum is not doing well anymore.. not because people are not playing poker anymore, but because of people like coordi who believe they are obliged to go into every thread and ask for it to be closed..

as if he was paying rent or something
as if we were taking something from him
as if it was a weight on his shoulder

not even a day had passed that the guy jumps in and keeps arguing to close it, he just wouldn't let go

who would want to come and post anything after that?

anyways, good job mate, you can add me to the list of people who you scared off

You arent dumping your bags on us mate

You made the thread and there was no engagement whatsoever. It's because this doesn't interest anyone yet. Why blame the lack of engagement on coordi?

Are ya dense mate? I have 97 posts in the NFT thread, the next closest person has 37 and they had a passing interest in footium and literally no other NFTs. I integrated the one NFT person on here into my NFT community discord already months ago. I'm the pretty much the only audience here for NFTs.

Literally 0 engagement to this post. I tried though.

Not following much and prefer not making new threads for each NFT as the engagement in the one threat is low. I would guess at some point there will be a de-coupling of Kodas and artifacts. It is possible the artifacts can have some utilization in this metaverse and create a marketplace for the game using apecoin.

On the otherside, what do you think will happen when another 100,000 are released?

im not dense mate (coordi) and I'm not dumping anything on anyone (boids)
and im not blaming the lack of engagement on anyone (soqualquest)

i don't mind the lack of engagement

The Otherside is a long term project, and sooner or later some people will be interested in it (Kazor for example)

i just don't get why would anyone jump in after two days and ask to merge the thread...

please just explain this to me... why? why merge? even if there was no engagement, whom is it hurting?



maybe im missing something but if i created a thread its because i want to talk about a precise subject, right mate?


how is any of your concern what happens to this thread? how is your responsibility to ask for it to be merged?

Yes Kodas and Artifacts are decoupling soon, the market place (the "Agora") will be up after that to trade resources and such


My own theory is that the other 100,000 deeds will be where the Metaverse will be built
Virgin land, which voyagers (us) will settle, and build upon using the resources we get from the first 100,000 deeds

I think everyone will build his very own trip on his lands, and thus create a huge diverse mega virtual world
The Metaverse


my biggest question at this point is what do kodas do? How important are they? because i can easily see their value top 50 eth at least when they're decoupled, if they are as important as i believe
and artifacts.. lol at selling for 1eth.. i think they'll be worth much much more once we start understanding their uses

In all my life I've never ever seen a game this complex, this well thought, this amazing
i've played probably most "resource based, world building games", and nothing has ever come even close to the otherside..

Complex? Can you link a gameplay video? Everything I've found looks like insider hype over a game with WoW-launch graphics.

How much does it cost to play this game? Pretend I actually just want to play it as a video game, rather than an investment.

You are right, there is no telling yet how the gameplay will be cause there isn't any information available yet... no video, not even written info

I'm just using the word "complex" because of all the variables they included, all the different factors:
78 different type or resources, some more rare than others, 29 different environment, several different categories etc etc.. Different sediments, different locations, Kodas, Artifacts, weapons etc etc
It just seems so evolved compared to all other games in this genre ive played before, seems so well thought .. the graphics are indeed WOW and the technology behind it is UNREAL, unheard-of , light years ahead of their second challenger, whomever that may be.. they have teamed up with the best companies in the field (Improbable and M2) and they are creating the most advanced gameplay field ever, its definitely not easy, but what ive seen from the first demo makes me sooooo optimistic about the future of this game.. it was just unbelievable having 5 thousand people on the same server, playing together without problem, speaking to each other and being able to hear and talk back etc etc


About the insider thing, im afraid that's a staples of all crypto projects right? as long as you have anonymity and you can stack up wallets its always gonna be there unfortunately and that's the biggest drawback I can think of.. its terribly bad and its so widespread that one day, it WILL be a problem.. I certainly hope they find a solution to this problem before a big scandal hurts everyone real bad..


As far as playing the game for free, Im pretty sure you can, eventually
Just not in the same way as people who bought lands..
For now, its kind of closed to the voyagers (holders of deeds) but when a certain stage is reached (after the other 100,000 deeds are released im assuming), the game will open up to outside "visitors" who will be able to roam free and do anything they want in the metaverse, without ever having to invest anything
Harvesting, building, trading etc will be only for people who own land though and that makes sense

Mate, engage here

Look, Id love to hear more about Animoca (first time I hear about it, and it seems to be quite an important thing to know), and discuss why The otherside has already eclipsed (in my mind at least) the sandbox and decentraland.. and just left them way behind
But the thing is the NFT thread is huge, i can't scroll through all that and only pick the stuff about the Otherside, its just too complicated to try and do that in such a huge thread

Maybe I've played too many video games (or more likely I'm jaded and cynical when it comes to anything metaverse/crypto) but I've got a hard time getting excited - let alone calling a game amazing - based on what videos are out there and a crafting system.

Hope it works out for you - please post some game play videos when you can.

You want my take? Yuga singlehandedly killed the NFT market. They forced "kyc" on their customers, which ultimately enriched bad actors who purchased KYC farms from indonesia and sold them for massive profits. These KYC farms created an inflated sense of demand which lead to them jacking up the price of the land from an expected .25-.5 to almost 3 eth worth of APE. It was the biggest syphoning of wealth out of the NFT space right in the middle of an NFT downturn. And look, NFTs were declining already, but this was just first few nails in the coffin.

There is literally nothing Yuga/Animoca can deliver that would be worth the cost to the market.

Comments like this make you come across like a shill or a troll. I've been gaming for 25 years and I can assure you the only compelling part of the project is the scale the servers seem to allow.

Im not sure I agree with a couple of things... the NFT market was already on the down don't really think yuga broke it tbh.. and i really really feel the game is way more complex and way more "intelligent" than most of what's out there, but then again we haven't seen anything yet, so i cant affirm anything with certainty

But id love to hear more about the KYC farms... what do you mean by that?
yeah kyc is a terrible idea (although if it was done properly, it couldve been useful to fight stealing and hacking)

how did you come up with the .25/.5 valuation?
based on yuga's track record alone it would be way more than that... factor in the huge demand and the potential and I'm not sure it was that over inflated.. perhaps todays price is the most logical for a game that has not taken off yet, specially that it has never dipped below 2 eth yet

went to bed and couldn't sleep, kept thinking about what you said...
I mean i'm fixing to buy-in big time, and you really scared me

but then I started thinking and I seriously doubt you had any basis for this valuation.. how can it be .25 to .5 eth?

this game is play to earn, you will make money just from your resources (forget about all other possibilities, just think of that)

I cannot believe this is worth so little.. I mean a guy playing axis infinity makes a few hundred bucks a month, and that's a free game, so im betting playing the otherside will get you at least the same thing... that enough to make the deeds much more valuable than what you reckon
And that's not even counting the artifacts, the actual "otherside", and all the other revenue avenues

Please try and convince me otherwise, maybe you might end up saving me money.. im still so bullish on this, but you did plant doubt in my mind more than anyone before
